    The bookies William Hill have paid out their final customer who backed Leicester to win the Premier League at 5000/1. 

    The customer was from the Burnage area of Manchester and placed the bet in August.

    It was a £20 bet but he cashed out half of it early after his family pressured him.

    In total he won £78,000.

    A few of you have been complaining on Twitter about the train service from Narborough to Leicester for the parade. 

    I've just spoken to Cross Country Trains - they say they've put on as many extra trains as possible to get fans to the parade.

    They also say some trains that were not scheduled to stop at Narborough station have been stopping to try to ease congestion.
